Too much competition. They will need to break some rules if they wanna turn it around.

a couple posters on the Rivals boards have said that Turner Gill would take the Miss State job if offered (say they heard it on the radio). Just stating what I read

I think it'd be a very good hire but I'm not sure of how successful he'd be in the SEC. If he wins 6-7 games a year as a coach, which I could see happening due to who he's recruiting against, then he'll be no better than Sly Croom.

New Mexico isn't a bad job personally. The Mountain West is a good conference to get in, the facilities aren't bad there, and they usually make a bowl game. I think with the right combination of in-state talent and guys from Texas and California that he could compete in the MWC.

Franchione used it as a launching pad to Alabama and Texas A&M. Marv Levy, Bum Phillips, Bronco Mendenhall, and Steve Fairchild all coached there as well.

Damn, MSU got a good one with Mullen. I wish him the best of luck (but not too much). He'll bring a great offensive scheme for the college game and should steal some recruits using the gaudy numbers his guys put up at UF in his offense as a selling point.

I'd expect to see Billy Gonzalez (the WR coach) to replace him. Has been with Meyer since BGU, and works with the wide receivers, probably the most important part of the spread.

*fellow Gator fan here*

i hope that Mullen does great at MSU but i wish that he would had waited for a better job in a less demanding conference. I mean it's low risk, high reward for both parties involved because the SEC West is stacked and he's got a heck of a task on hand. i don't even think he's a finished product as a OC yet

He was Meyer's QB coach at Utah and followed him to Florida. He's known for his spread offense and for his work with QB's. I think that with the QB's at MS State already that those two could run the spread, but I'm not sure about the receivers. They do have some good RB's there so....

The SEC West is going to be very interesting next year.

I think Mullen could have Mississippi State looking like this year's Ole Miss.
